While this course is not intendedto replace an introductory Revit courseand it does not explore the advanced fundamentalsof family creation, it is designedto potentially one of your very first Revit projectsand introduce you to the general workflowof modeling the complete building and site.So join me as we create a houseinside the Revit environment.
